Delivery

The NETGEAR FS728TLP ProSafe 24-Port Smart Fast Ethernet PoE Switch provides 24 (twenty-four) 10/100BASE-T ports, 4 (four) 10/100/1000BASE-T ports, 2 (two) of which function as combo ports, and 2 (two) small form-factor pluggable (SFP) GBIC slots, both of which function as combo ports. Power over Ethernet (PoE) is supported on ports 1 through 12. The switchs management features include configuration for port and switch information, VLAN for traffic control, port trunking for increased bandwidth, and Class of Service (CoS) for traffic prioritisation.

Smart Management
The switch also provides the benefit of administrative management with a complete package of features to monitor, configure, and control the network. With the web management interface, you can view the switches many features and use them in a simple and intuitive manner. The NETGEAR FS728TLP switch management features include configuration for port and switch information, VLAN for traffic control, port trunking for increased bandwidth, and Class of Service (CoS) for traffic prioritisation. Initial discovery of the NETGEAR FS728TLPswitch on the network requires the Smart Control Center, a utility that runs on a computer.

Deployment and PoE
You can use the NETGEAR FS728TLP switch freestanding or rack-mounted in a wiring closet or equipment room. The switch is IEEE-compliant and provides low latency for high-speed networking. All port scan automatically negotiate to the highest speed. This capability makes the switch well suited for environments that have a mix of Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet devices. In addition, all RJ-45 ports operate in half- or full-duplex mode. The maximum segment length is 328 feet (100 meters) over a Category 5 twisted-pair cable.
